[Ord. No. 1290 §1, 6-17-1997]
Any person, group, organization or other entity who wishes to
conduct a special event shall be required to apply for and have issued
by the City a special event permit, unless otherwise regulated by
the City. A special event shall include a fireworks display, concert,
rodeo or similar event which requires the erection of a structure,
where parking, traffic, public safety, Police or fire protection would
be affected. A special event permit application shall be completed
by the applicant detailing a description of the event and when the
event is proposed to be held. All applications shall be submitted
to and reviewed by the City Administrator. At the City Administrator's
discretion, he may forward the application to the Board of Aldermen
for consideration. Any authority granted may be suspended or withdrawn
if in the City's opinion the special event is operated or conducted
in a manner inconsistent with representations made on the application,
or is inconsistent with verbal representations made by the applicant
during consideration of the subject application.
[Ord. No. 2391 § 1, 10-4-2016; Ord.
No. 2658, 6-7-2022]
Food trucks may be operated in commercial districts and in subdivision
common areas such as adjacent to pools, clubhouses or other recreational
amenities (Board of Trustees approval is required for residential
subdivision events). A commercial entity or subdivision may propose
no more than three (3) such instances in a calendar year, with no
more than two (2) food trucks being operated at a single event. Regardless
of whether the food trucks are proposed to be operated in City right-of-way
or on private property, Board of Aldermen approval through the Special
Event application consideration process is required. If extraordinary
circumstances such as a fire or flood impact the ability to operate
a restaurant in a building or tenant space, the Board of Aldermen
may authorize the temporary operation of a food truck on the subject
property. Use under such circumstances shall be only for the period
of time making repairs. If repairs are not commenced within ninety
(90) days of the incident, the use of the food truck shall cease.
